Currently me and some of my playmates, we stumbled on an increase in the damages received by our ships. Playing in different parts of the universe, some in drone region I in Empire, others in WH. we wondered if changes have been made of some kind to tanking.

Before someone trolls you into oblivion;

Different areas have different rats/mission factions. Each faction deals a different type of primary and secondary damage. Thus, depending upon how you have your tank fit, you will take more or less damage.

By this, I mean, you need to look at how your ship is set up (using EFT or Pyfa) and see what your resistances are. Then look at the damage being dealt and determine if you are tanked (resistance wise) properly.

Probably I was too general. We are all longtime player, all with about 35/40 million SP. Specifically, I fly with Navy Dominix armor tanked, and tanked ishtar shield. Running lvl4 mission for some time but I have noticed a decrease in the efficiency of tanking. The same for my friends in 0.0.

From this doubt, we thought that asking any fix on the forum was the best thing to do.

is there an incursion going on? these can mess with resists.

also in missions the spawns are sightly random, could just be you got slightly unlucky with the spawn in your last mission. in worlds collide I find the core admirals hit me pretty hard, where most of the other variants just miss.
